#Krampus!Kurt

[burningexeter]

[COMING SOON OR IN THE WORKS]

For fun, it's a headcanon shared universe that I can see or put together consisting of movies/shows/video games.

They're all different from each other but the one thing that connects them all is the reoccurring theme of very, very, very, very, VERY unconventional protagonists and ensembles not just fighting the odds but facing the highest stakes there ever was possible.

As you can see, it includes Breaking Bad, Sons Of Anarchy, Attack On Titan (at least the first two seasons of the anime), Krampus, Wrath Of Man and Wildwood but there's obviously going to be way more to it than those. Those are just too give an example of what I'm talking about, what I mean or what I'm going for with this.

Obviously, I don't want to be pigeonholed into any specific or certain genre so the theme allows for more exploration cause that's part of the fun, what does everything have to be super similar to each other, come on, this is awesome.

And yes, of course there's no crossing over. I just can see them being in the same universe as a fun throughline just to think about again for the hell of it.

Nothing more to it than that other than some genuine big important details.

Coming soon....

Sinister Kurt having trouble with his instincts, you are the only one who calms him.

Firstly, Kurt with horns? YUM. But I like how they showed him having difficulty controlling himself after his mutation was further developed (I don't remember what the circumstances were). I thought it was a cool concept for his character so here we go. Inner conflict is always fun.

Warnings: Descriptions of violence and blood, some angst, comfort ofc, gender neutral reader, unedited ignore mistakes.

WC: 2.7k

Kurt had no idea where they came from. He woke up with two horns on his head like some sort of Krampus. He felt something inside himself stir, and he tried to ignore it, it felt like a pit in his gut that slowly began to expand and grow when he wasn't focused on repressing it.

You reassured him he was still the handsome man you loved, his horns gave him a little extra insecurity. He hadn't felt so insecure about himself in a long time, as Krakoa had provided such acceptance his appearance hadn't been a thought in his mind as a bad thing. But these horns...they made him look more like a devil than anything else, and that worried him.

"Engel...I am becoming ein Teufel..." he mumbled sadly, touching them as he looked at himself in the mirror. "What is becoming of me..." he turned to look at you, his eyes holding confliction and sadness.

"Oh, my love," you cooed to him, standing and walking over, "They're just a pair of little horns...I'm sure that they'll go away...maybe." Your sentence quieted towards the end, it was such a random development, you had no idea where the horns stemmed from and what was going to happen to him. Was his mutation randomly evolving more? Was it something in Krakoa that was making his mutation mutate? You didn't know.

Kurt sighed inwardly, his arms wrapped tightly around himself as if seeking solace from an unseen torment. You hadn't seen him in this state for years; he looked so lost, so utterly confused. It was as though he was grappling with a fear that had taken residence within him, a fear directed at his very own reflection. With his new appearance, you couldn't blame him for feeling this way.

His once familiar face now bore the horns of a demon and he couldn't recognize himself, even with something so minor. He thought he looked awful, and he was at a complete loss on how to process these overwhelming feelings, the weight of his transformation was a burden he didn't know how to carry.

Not that he told you yet, but it wasn't just a physical change he had gone through. There was something deeper and more unsettling happening within him. His urges were growing stronger and more insistent every day. He felt a strange compulsion that he couldn't easily explain. He didn't know how to bring it up with you because he didn't want to scare you or make you worry. The thought of sharing this part of himself was something he was trying to avoid, he feared your reaction more than anything.

He would see you talk to another man, and everything in his body screamed at him to attack. His muscles tensed, his fists clenched, and his heart pounded as primal instincts surged through him. The images and urges that flashed across Kurt's mind scared him deeply, filling him with a sense of dread and confusion. He shook his head vigorously, trying to dispel the violent thoughts clouding his mind.

"Nein...I am...not a monster," he muttered to himself, arguing, begging with his own being, his voice trembling with the effort to control his darker impulses. He held onto you, whispering German prayers to himself. The internal struggle was intense, leaving him feeling isolated and tormented, as if he were battling a beast within.

And he was, in a way.

His grip on your hip would be tight, his nails had grown into claws that dug into you, not on purpose but in the moment he couldn't help himself. His yellow eyes glared at the man, his lip curled up slightly to bare his teeth. He snapped out of his descent only when he heard your voice in his ear. "Kurt?? That hurts, a bit..." You winced slightly, your hand gently trying to ease the grip he had on your waist.

He snapped out of it, blinking a few times and letting go. "Liebling....I...es tut mir Leid...." he apologized quietly, his voice barely a whisper. He looked down at his hand once he let go of you, his eyes filled with confusion and concern. "Something is happening to me...I....do not know how to explain it," he continued, his tone tinged with a mix of fear and bewilderment.

What was strange was that a part of him actually liked these new instincts that were surfacing within him. It was a feeling that baffled him, and he hated himself for even entertaining such thoughts. He had always prided himself on his compassion and his desire to never cause harm to anyone, ever.

But now, these intrusive thoughts were invading his mind with increasing frequency, making the idea of causing harm seem so...good, almost irresistible. It was a battle within himself, between the person he had always been and these dark new impulses that threatened to take over. It was like a siren song, beckoning him to come over the brink.

"What do you mean?" you asked him gently, your voice full of understanding and patience. Despite having no idea what was going on, you managed to sound so composed and caring. He was incredibly fortunate to have someone like you by his side. So deeply in love with him, you were always there to protect and support him. Your devotion was unwavering, and it made him feel cherished. So protective. So possessive.

Kurt stared you down intently, his piercing yellow eyes observing your every move. After a moment of intense scrutiny, he grabbed hold of you firmly and tugged you flush against him. You could feel the warmth of his body against yours, and his breathing increased noticeably. You made a sudden gasp of surprise at the unexpected act, your heart pounding in your chest.

He lowered his head closer to you, his forehead gently touching yours, his horns rested delicately on your head. Behind him, his tail thrashed wildly, a clear indication of his heightened emotions. It was obvious that he was either irritated or stressed, as his tail only behaved this way in such situations. The air around you seemed to crackle with tension, making the moment even more intense. His silence didn't help.

"Kurt...?" you squeaked as his hands grasped your ass and squeezed firmly, sending a shiver down your spine. Your eyes widened in surprise and you felt his tail wrap tightly around you, holding you still in a firm, possessive grip.

"Kurt!" you exclaimed, looking around nervously. He had never been so bold before, and this unexpected display of affection caught you off guard. A few playful touches here and there in public were common, sure, but to grab you in such an intimate and brazen manner without a care in the world was completely unlike him.

Your mind raced as you tried to make sense of his sudden audacity, wondering what had prompted this uncharacteristic behavior. "W-what has gotten into you?!" Your voice echoed in his mind, getting lost in the fog clouding his rational thinking. All he could think about right now was you. How good you'd feel, how good you'd taste.

One more shout at him and he seemed to snap out of the hold the dark fog inside of him had. With a blink he pulled back, his cheeks turning violet, "Ach! I-I didn't mean to do that!" Kurt spoke quickly, his voice trembling with urgency, "Es tut mir Leid! I-I'm sorry!" His eyes were wide with concern as he looked at you, clearly distressed.

His hands, which have been on your backside, were retracted up like he had touched an oven, fingers curling as if to protect himself from further harm. The tension in the air was palpable, and you could see the regret etched on his face, his body language screaming apology and fear.

"Kurt, sweetheart...please, talk to me. Tell me what's going on..." You pleaded with him, your hands cupping his cheeks. "I'm not mad because you grabbed my butt either. You've literally been inside me," your words made him stiffen and blush harder, a tiny whine escaping through his trembling lips. "I just want to know what's going on...you're acting so...different. Since those horns sprouted from your head..."

He took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling with a heavy sigh, and looked down to avoid your gaze. The weight of his thoughts made it impossible for him to bring himself to look you in the eye. He felt such shame and embarrassment, fearing you wouldn’t like what you heard. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke, his voice trembling with vulnerability.

"I've been... having thoughts. Bad thoughts... these images flash across my mind. They are random sometimes, appearing out of nowhere, but sometimes they happen in the moment," he begins quietly, his words barely audible. "It's like a dark cloud that follows me, casting a shadow over everything. I don't know what to do about it, and I'm scared of what it means. I'm afraid it means I am becoming something horrible..."

You coo softly, your thumbs gently rubbing his cheekbones as you stay quiet, offering him the space and time he needs to get out the words he struggles to voice. "What are they? The thoughts?" you ask gently, your voice barely above a whisper, trying to coax him into sharing more with you so you can have a better understanding.

"Hurting people," Kurt's voice strains, "I don't want to! I don't want to hurt anyone, I'm not a monster... I don't want to be one... but... it's so overwhelming sometimes. It's like every fiber in my body is demanding me to do it," he continues, his voice cracking under the weight of his confession. You can see the torment etched across his face, the internal struggle tearing him apart.

"You aren't a monster, Kurt. This might just...be part of this new development," you said, your voice gentle and reassuring. You stroked up more, feeling the base of his horns, noting the texture and warmth. "You don't act on those thoughts, and that's a good sign. You're not a slave to those intrusive flashes; you recognize that they are wrong, and you don't act on them. That means you aren't the person you imagine you are. You have control, even if it doesn't always feel that way."

"But what if I do act on them," he asks weakly, his voice trembling with fear and uncertainty. "What if I can't control it?"

"Then I will help you," you replied firmly, your eyes locked onto his, full of determination and love. "I'm not worried, because I believe in you." You gave him a tender kiss, showing him all the love you could muster. "Trust me, if you can't trust yourself. We will face this together, and I will be by your side every step of the way. You are not alone in this."

He shed a few tears, and they stained his pretty cheeks in dark lines as they traveled slowly down his face. His pained gaze closed tightly as he bit his lip, trying to stifle the sobs that threatened to escape. "Ich verdiene dich nicht," he whispered weakly, his voice barely audible as it trembled with emotion. His shaky hands held you with such gentle awareness, as if he were afraid to harm you accidentally with his claws.

"You do." You gave him a few more soft kisses, your gentle reassurance helping keep his emotions at bay.

That was a week ago.

Now, you followed the sound of his teleportation and saw him fighting alongside other mutants. You joined in, not knowing what exactly was happening, but seeing enough to know that these soldiers were attacking your home. You were fighting well, your skills made you a confident fighter, but when Kurt spotted you and more soldiers around you, his composure vanished.

That horrible itch he had been so desperate to scratch was finally too overwhelming for him.

The sound of a mighty roar echoed through the air as he lunged at the soldiers with a terrifying intensity. His movements were swift and brutal, attacking them with such ferocity that it left you stunned, unable to process what was happening. Normally, Kurt was known for his preference to incapacitate his opponents, opting to knock them down and out rather than kill them unless absolutely necessary. However, in this moment, he had abandoned his usual morals and principles, casting them aside like a forgotten cloak.

Right now, he was a force of nature, mercilessly ripping into the soldiers with an uncharacteristic savagery that showcased a side of him you had never seen before. You watched with disbelief as Kurt completely ravaged through the soldiers, staying in front of you and snarling with blood caked between his teeth, drooling down his goatee and staining his fuzzy skin. You tried to call out to him, to be the desperate voice of reason in his carnage.

It seemed that your voice fell on deaf ears, and he continued his relentless attack.

He had ruthlessly slaughtered over twelve men within a mere minute, and he didn't seem to have any qualms or remorse about it. The air was thick with tension as he turned to look at you, his chest heaving with heavy breaths like a wild animal after a fierce battle. Slowly, he crawled over to you, inching closer with a predatory grace.

You were frozen in place, paralyzed by the sheer brutality and unfamiliarity of this new Kurt. His eyes, which were usually so expressive and full of life, now seemed glazed over with an emotion you couldn't quite decipher. It was as if a stranger had taken over the body of the man you once knew, leaving you feeling more vulnerable and confused.

He dripped onto you, causing you to whine and hastily wipe the blood off your top. His head lowered against you, his breath warm and uneven. "Kurt...?" you asked weakly, your voice trembling as it escaped your lips.

The sound of your voice made him stiffen slightly, and he leaned back, his intense gaze boring holes into you, scrutinizing every inch of your face. The air around you felt thick with tension, and you could feel the heavy weight of his stare.

His breathing calmed, the rapid rise and fall of his chest slowing to a more steady rhythm, and he stayed where he was, staring at you with an unwavering focus. You swore he seemed more mutated in that moment, his claws were longer, sharper, and his horns almost appeared just as so, curving menacingly.

The changes in his appearance made your heart race even faster, a mixture of fear and concern gnawing at your insides as you wondered what exactly had happened to him. What caused this?

You slowly reached out to him, your hand trembling as it brushed against his cheek, ignoring the blood that spattered across his skin from his recent animalistic attack. The warmth of his skin contrasted sharply with the coldness of the blood. He relayed a quiet growl to you, his eyes blinking slowly, the ferocity gradually fading as he began to regain his senses.

As he came to, he saw the destruction he had caused, the chaos and ruin that lay around him. It was so painfully heart-wrenching to watch him realize the extent of what he had done, the devastation in his eyes made you want to wrap him up and take him away.

"W-what...what did I do..." he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper, as he glanced back over his shoulder. He could only bear to look at the bodies for a mere second before quickly averting his gaze in horror and disbelief. "Nein...nein, nein....I didn't...did I??" His bloody hands trembled violently, the crimson stains glaring back at him accusingly, and he made a quiet, heart-wrenching wail, shrinking into himself where he sat, overwhelmed by the gravity of the situation.

You were right there to catch him, just as you had promised. Gently, you reached out, offering the comfort and support he desperately needed.

"Hey, hey...it..it's okay," you tried to find the words to comfort him, but you realized words weren't enough to ease the pain or fear he was experiencing. So, you chose to just be there for him, offering silent support and understanding. Just you, being a comforting presence in his time of need.

He grabbed you and clung on, crying as he didn't bother holding himself back. He was distraught, the very thing he feared the most had happened. "I'm here." you whispered quietly, your arms wrapped tightly around him as the rest of the world faded away and you became the only thing he could focus on.

"I'm here."

Thanks for reading.

I only knew about Mystique being his mom and him being absolutely amazing. (I love his abilities, the fact he has a tail is a bonus (five freaking limbs, come on))

I am really cool with Destiny being his other mom. Of course, Mystique is the main parent, only because she is so frequent. (Sounds crazy but that is my brain).

Never cared for the Azeal thing. Even seeing Demoninzed Kurt was cringe from the snippets I saw. (Plus Marvel already has antichrist like kids, Wiccan and Speed, depending on the story, Krampus (Hela child), and many more hellspawns.

Night crawler has two moms now and the anti sjws aren’t taking it so well

To them, having two moms is worse than being the son of a literal demon

[kurtty-drabbles]

Postwoman au (part 12)

N/A: Meh, I want to do this story. Why? why not? My motto now. Oh, inspired by a nice art I saw on tumblr.

@dannybagpipesarecalling @tieflingteeth @muninandhugin​​

"So, can you refresh to me why we´re doing this?" Kitty asked sitting at the top of the sled donning herself with traditional elf clothes- a green dress that shows more of her legs than she is willing to admit and a pointy hat covering her normal ears nicely-puffing and pouting as Krampus aka Kurt is holding a comically long list one last time.

Kurt decides to humor Kitty in her little question. "Should I start an obvious conversation with, as you know?" Kurt asked flashing an enchanting smile-which considering who and what Kurt is, may not be just a euphemism- and Kitty rolls her eyes in good humor, which for a cat person like Kitty is really not that rare.

"Santa Claus just discovered his son is now his daughter....and he is in shocked he never realizes how his daughter was needing help and support" Kurt explains putting one last bag on the sled.

"You know, if you can know if kids are being good or naughty but can realize your daughter is needing support...this affects him as a father" Kurt states calmly. "Yes, he has many kids. Women and men and all spectrum of sexuality are loved by him...through his older brother would strongly disagree" Kurt´s gaze falls on Kitty now. "Claus comes from a family that is not very supportive and the man did vow to do better"

Kitty cock one eyebrow. "Sure, but this is about his daughter, not his ego" Kitty can´t defend nor judge Claus, per se, but Kitty is a cat person, therefore, she feels she has some freedom to do so.

Kurt inhales as the reindeer's are in position- they were bickering and flying around until Kurt´s eyes land on their horns, no one likes an angry Krampus- "This is about his daughter hence why he asked me to cover Christmas for this year...I´m not sure if he can make up with his daughter or what will happen, all I can say is...our work will be double and he wons me big time"

And before Kitty could even say something else. "Yes, Claus owns you big time too"

Kitty looks at her outfit one last time. "I´m wearing something worth of a pin-up. Why?"

"All elves wear this"

"All elves?"

"ALL ELVES"

Kitty relives hows Santa Claus literally fucks with anything willingly and wants to stray from that thought. "Ok, but won´t I be a block of ice?"

"Not really, while the outfit does shows your legs...and I´m looking respectfully, it´s also charmed to protect you from cold and heat" Kurt answer and Kitty nods relived.

"Well, I´m a bit nervous...what I´m supposed to do exactly?" Kitty never celebrated Christmas and all Hallmark movies make seem that two white people will share a passionate kiss on Christmas eve that will solve all their problems. It was really strange for her.

"Two things. I need you to open the door for me, NO I´LL NOT SLEDE THROUGH CHIMNEY AGAIN" Kurt clears his throat as Kitty tries not to giggle. "And I need you to put the bells to the naughty children and others gifs...we´re working double, Katzchen"

Kitty nods again. She can be an efficient postwoman. She makes a small salute gesture and sat back as Kurt is in the sled.

"Hey, can we eat the cookies and milk?" Kitty asked curiously now.

"I´ll eat if I saw it....I promise you that"

The reindeers are waiting for the command of their masters. It would have been such a cute scene if it wasn´t for two details. Kurt is in his Krampus form-Kitty doesn´t think he loses his usual attractiveness but no one is ready to Kitty admitting she thinks Krampus´s form hot- and second...and most important...

The reindeers are far from cute. No, the reindeers are demonic beings with red shot eyes, teeth cable of render flesh-in fact one of them was eating a mysterious type of meat- and both are dark as the pure darkness.

"Hum, one last question, Kurt, my dear elf," Kitty said looking unsure for the reindeers who are passively waiting. She whispers in his ear-afraid the reindeers could listen- "Are they supposed to look like that?"

"Yes, the Marketing and RH change their looks for promotions and things like that but Santa´s reindeers come from hell...it was a present from Odin" Kurt states amused.

"I thought he was Odin"

"There´s two Odins. One is a God, the other is an alien. One is a bad father...the other tries to be better"

"Ok, got it" Kitty promises and looks at the creatures- they´re now howling like is no big deal, shrieking as could break the barrier of sound- "what?"

"Nothing, just demonic reindeers being demonic!"

The sled flies away and Kitty swears she saw the creatures´ eyes resemble a strange hungriness- fat, blood tears fall from the creatures- and Kitty is so thankful she is Jewish.

"Wait, wait...won´t people be afraid if..."

"Fret not, katzchen, you´re the only one who can see them in their natural form"

"...Great"

Meanwhile, Jubilee and Bobby were talking about their project when Bobby points to the sky. "Jubs, look, It´s Santa´s sled!"

Jubilee looks up to see the sled and the cute reindeers and is bemused. "Meh, we don´t celebrate Christmas but is cool to see cute flying reeinders"

Bobby agrees and they resume their conversation.

The Christmas Chronicles (2018)

What an effective horror movie.  Jolly Old Saint Nick himself is introduced like one of the aliens in Signs, his arm darting momentarily out of the edge of the frame of a camcorder video.  He leaps from rooftop to rooftop, a swirling mass moving too fast to escape, his shadowy figure looking over at the children cowering in his sleigh.  His influence is inescapable, as the last time he was unable to deliver all of his gifts the world plunged into the chaos and strife of the Dark Ages.  Later on Santa’s helpers are given a similarly sinister introduction, the terrifying entities (allegedly elves) rushing towards a helpless little girl as she videotapes them Blair Witch Project style, filling the frame.  This comes immediately after Kate plummeted into an endless abyss of gifts, a space where Euclidian geometry and the laws of space and time have no meaning.  The elves overwhelm a group of hardened Chicago,  and form an impromptu paratrooper squad, descending on an unsuspecting town as the people below sleep innocently.  After a night of chaos and terror, the children are home, alive but forever changed.  They’ve survived.  But Santa has one more twist of the knife for them: he’s trapped the soul of their dead father in a Christmas ornament.  Harrowing.

THE RULES

SIP

Someone says ‘Christmas’.

Horror movie beat.

Sex comedy beat.

Kate starts videotaping something.

Santa quotes Christmas carol lyrics.

BIG DRINK

I don’t want to know about Santa’s sack.

We’re reminded that the kids’ dad is dead.  Again.

[knitpool]

Don’t worry! Kurt will cover for you!

Christmas headcanons for nh boys please~

the boys and christmas

this is such a cute request!! these will all be based on christmas traditions that i've experienced, so i apologize if this is all very american. all of the boys are included so this can be read either platonically or romantically with the exception of kurt, whose part is to be read in a strictly platonic light.

genre: fluff, crack

cw: no plot line, just random hcs, i got off track and made some of it just plain wintery hcs, itty bitty spoilers for noel's part

Lucia

❧ he for sure throws a holiday party at his place, and it's got everything like an ugly sweater contest which no one participates in and snowball fights and a scrumptious dinner

❧ he's incredibly festive too, like his halls are absolutely decked out with tinsel and lights and paper snowflakes

❧ absolutely hangs mistletoe, he puts one in every doorway, what a menace. he gets stuck under it with mikael, who promptly tries to push his face away

❧ he for sure gets down to mariah carey's "all i want for christmas," i don't make the rules

❧ loves candy canes and peppermint bark and anything peppermint really because they're red and match him

❧ he wakes up early, a little after kurt, and they wake everyone up like little kids

❧ he actually gets people meaningful gifts that are all intricately thought out and sentimental and everyone is lowkey surprised they didn't just get gag gifts or underwear from him he got those for everyone too tho shh

❧ his favorite part about the holidays is getting to spend time and goof around with his brothers again like they used to

Levy

❧ ngl he gives off scrooge vibes but it's just what he shows on the surface; his eyes give away that he loves the magic of christmas

❧ he probably gets really uneasy at the thought of santa and the elf on the shelf because wdym they watch me all the time?? that's so creepy and weird??

❧ he's woken up too early for his liking by lucia who literally jumps on top of him and knocks all the wind out of him. once he gets his breath back, levy proceeds to chase lucia around his room and down the hall, threatening to beat him with a pillow

❧ he doesn't know how to feel about eggnog, like it kinda smacks but it's literally eggs??

❧ he's lowkey hard to buy for but if you wanna win him over, buy him books; you've really got him happy if they're like some rare, antique books that you found wedged in the back of a shelf in a random, hole-in-the-wall bookstore

❧ he gets really awkward opening presents in front of everyone tho because they just kind of stare at you, expecting a good reaction, and then it's all over so quick

❧ his favorite thing about the holidays is the lights, he thinks they're so calming and pretty, especially when they reflect off the snow. he also loves how creative people are with light shows

Mefy

❧ he's on the naughty list. there's absolutely no debating this. but he doesn't get coal in his stocking or anything, no one would allow that

❧ the pranking and menace behavior doesn't stop just because it's christmas. he's putting coal in lucia's stocking, he's threatening levy with the elf on the shelf just to scare him, he takes a singular gumdrop off of people's gingerbread houses just to mess with them

❧ he hates carolers, if any come up to the mansion somehow he'll scare them off or straight up shut the door in their faces

❧ his favorite holiday movie is how the grinch stole christmas, any of the versions really but especially the jim carrey version; he just really vibes with the grinch

❧ please no one tell him about krampus, he'd for sure find ways to mess with people with that

❧ lucia forces him to coordinate with him since they're the christmas colors, he hates it and refuses to wear the ugly sweaters lucia produces for him to put on

❧ absolutely disgusted by fruitcake and figgy pudding; he acts like the things are radioactive or something

❧ his favorite thing about the holidays is how magical it all seems with the snow and the lights and the peacefulness, it's so calming to him

Oswald

❧ it might just be me projecting, but this man radiates knitwear vibes, but in the cottagecore way. i'm talking handmade sweaters and mittens and scarves and hats

❧ he takes kurt sledding, they find the biggest hill and off they go. and, if he so wishes, oswald will pull kurt's sled around really fast, he likes seeing kurt have fun like a regular kid

❧ would go ice skating but the poor man is afraid he's going to break the ice and fall in or something

❧ he gets everyone really meaningful and useful gifts, probably all homemade or made by a local small business, like hand bound notebooks or fancy engraved fountain pens with organic ink

❧ don't ask me why, but i just feel like he would gift noel a really cozy knit sweater or maybe a nifty handmade necklace with a cool crystal

❧ he probably likes watching it's a wonderful life, it's a nice feel good movie

❧ he drinks too much eggnog, he thinks it's so tasty, but eventually he crashes cuz it makes him sleepy

❧ his favorite part of the holiday is either all the pretty seasonal flowers, or the symbolic rebirth and purity of that time of the year; it makes him feel hopeful for the future and especially grateful for what he has

Kaim

❧ poor man is the one doing all the work, setting up everything for lucia's party and overseeing the dinner preparations and making sure everything looks nice and in order

❧ my neighbors do this, but i feel like he'd get two trees: one nicely decorated and fancy tree for the front of the house to put by a window, and another tree for the main "family" area that can be decorated however the brothers want

❧ i know his thing is tea, but i feel like he could get down with all seasonal drinks like peppermint tea and peppermint mochas and hot chocolate and eggnog

❧ he makes really fancy hot chocolate, like the ones with the chocolate balls that you put in hot milk and they melt open and marshmallows pop out

❧ he likes watching everyone's inner child come out; it makes him happy to see the brothers get along and kurt run around and be a kid

❧ he might seem like he doesn't appreciate the gifts he gets, but he really does. he views himself as just a butler, so seeing that people spent time finding something for him? it makes him feel appreciated

❧ his favorite part of the holidays is probably the music, especially bell choirs; he likes the magical vibes of christmas music

Mikael

❧ to me he just gives bah humbug vibes, but in reality he really likes the holiday season

❧ he's not a huge fan of cold weather but he loves it when there's a white christmas, he thinks it's so pretty and pure

❧ to me he just embodies the peaceful, silent night, untouched snow illuminated by streetlights, christmas eve vibe of the holidays, ya feel?

❧ he also loves how there's less daylight at least in the northern hemisphere which means he can stargaze more; he thinks it's cool how the christmas lights look like stars

❧ he doesn't give anyone gifts. is it because he forgot or because he just didn't want to? we'll never know for sure. however, he does make sure everyone gets enough food and something yummy to drink throughout the day

❧ he gets a few gag gifts from lucia and ricardo, and he makes a show about how much of a waste it was for them to get him those awful gifts, but he secretly keeps them all in a box that's hidden in the back of his closet

❧ he also receives a gift from noel, only it's something he'll actually like and use on the regular like a new tea cup or a fancy pen

❧ he actually enjoys fruitcake, but thinks peppermint is too spicy

Ricardo

❧ he's on the same level as lucia in terms of acting like a child on christmas

❧ he demands that everyone is to give him at least one gift, but in return he gives people the worst gifts ever

❧ such a menace at holiday parties: he tires to get everyone under the mistletoe, he spikes the eggnog, he initiates several snowball fights, he throws balls of wrapping paper at people, he kicks over people's snowmen

❧ another one to never tell about krampus, he can and will scare the children

❧ absolutely disgusted by fruitcake and figgy pudding, and is subsequently appalled when he finds mikael on his fourth slice of fruit cake since the party started like an hour ago

❧ absolutely loves the nightmare before christmas, totally gets down with the gothy edgy vibes. would probably also like jim carrey's how the grinch stole christmas

❧ he enjoys rock covers of christmas songs the best, but you can also catch him lip syncing to mariah in the corner of the room pst here's my christmas playlist :)

❧ his favorite part of the holiday is definitely the presents. he enjoys it when people give him things and he also likes tearing up the wrapping paper and throwing it at people

Noel

❧ y'all this is his season, like he's literally named after the holiday?? and it's close to his birthday?? make him feel special on christmas pls

❧ he probably gets really confused the first time he hears the first noel song and probably needs to have it explained to him

❧ this man is an absolute fiend for hot chocolate and peppermint bark and christmas crack and literally every other holiday sweet. you just made some gingerbread cookies? half of them are gone immediately after they are cool enough to be eaten

❧ he genuinely doesn't want anything as a gift, but he won't ever get rid of anything that was gifted to him

❧ he probably wouldn't be a big fan of being out in the snow because of how he was found, but he can appreciate how pretty it is

❧ again with the food thing, but if there's a dinner being prepared or treats being baked he will not leave the kitchen at all. keep an eye on him please so there's still food for everyone else at the party

❧ he thinks the elf on the shelf is genuine so he always glares at it because it must be watching mikael too, and without his permission?? how dare it. he also threatens ricardo with it, like "do as mikael says; the elf is watching"

❧ his favorite part about the holiday season is getting to curl up in front of the fire, all bundled up in blankets and a sweater, sipping on a nice mug of hot chocolate

Lucas

❧ he gives off the same vibes as mikael when it comes to christmas, only instead of the all white aesthetic, lucas' is the golden side of it all, like the stars and the nice yellow lights and the golden ornaments

❧ he manages to find the perfect gifts for everyone, even the people who he "doesn't know" that well or the ones that aren't particularly fond of him. most of the time it doesn't end up being exactly what they want but it's rather what they needed

❧ he makes absolutely amazing hot chocolate, like his is the more cottagecore version of the hot chocolate kaim makes

❧ would lose his mind if he knew about pinterest, he would want to try out all of the recipes and the diy decorations and cute little crafts

❧ his place is very well decorated and festive but not in an overwhelming way, like how my neighbors have seven blow up yard decorations that don't correlate at all. no, his is all cohesive and aesthetically pleasing and follows a nice color scheme, probably gold and white

❧ he's able to find the perfect christmas tree every year, like they're all basically the stereotypical christmas tree shape

❧ he knows all the best spots for ice skating and sledding and stargazing

❧ his favorite holiday movie is the polar express, he likes how there's magic involved, and he likes to make fun of the glasses kid

❧ his favorite part about the holidays is that he gets to spend time with his friends and newfound family

Kurt

❧ he's the most excited for christmas out of everyone, which makes sense because he's a kid, but he wakes up super early so that he can go around waking everyone up and getting them excited too

❧ he denies that he believes in santa, but deep down he still does. like you can see an extra sparkle in his eyes when he sees that the cookies and milk he left out are gone

❧ he consumes so much sugar throughout the day that, on top of the hearty christmas meals, he crashes so hard by like ten pm

❧ he has so much fun opening presents, but equally enjoys watching people open the gifts he gave them

❧ gets super into the gingerbread house making contest. he also decorates gingerbread men to look like all of his friends in the mansion

❧ he also has fun decorating the tree, although he as no appreciation for the aesthetics and just slaps ornaments on wherever he can; this is why kaim advocated for two trees

❧ kid loves to play matchmaker so he tries to trick people into going under the mistletoe with whoever he thinks is suitable

❧ his favorite christmas movie would probably be elf or home alone, or even the santa clause

❧ his favorite part about the holiday is simply the warmth and joy that comes with spending time with his friends and family

So Anja believe in Krampus as well as Santa Claus, so when that Krampus movie came out she was absolutely terrified of it and that is the only horror movie she refuses to watch. So when she gets in trouble around Christmas time, Kurt just has to say “Kram-“ and she quickly fixes her attitude-

If you’re looking for some Christmas specials to look out for, I recommend the Christmas Chronicles movies on Netflix.

It has Kurt Russel as Santa and has some references to other Christmas folklore like Belanickel (a less scary Krampus from my research) and the Yule Cat with a name I’m not even gonna attempt to pronounce who’d eat lazy children.

Honestly my friend and my mom love that one so much

[saywhen]

just so everyone is aware, i added two more muses, one is seasonal, one i shall write all year

i present to you, krampus (with traditional form and human form (adam baldwin)) and kurt russell as ol’ saint nick!!!

santa will be seasonal most likely and krampus i will write all year. i’ve been writing krampus for quite some time and i love him very much okAY

in other words, interactions for SAINT NICK and KRAMPUS are now open!

[lilibetts]

I 100% agree with you about town atmosphere during the holidays. I'm a sucker for lights, and snow, and the sound of Christmas music floating out from shops. It's all so magical! What are your favorite Christmas movies? And do you have some favorite tropes that go with them? Have a great first week of December! ~ Secret Santa

Thanks, Secret Santa!!

Some favorites include: Home Alone, the Polar Express, Love Actually (has its problems but it’s a classic), the Grinch, Elf, A Christmas Story, I try to catch Frosty the Snowman/Charlie Brown/Rudolph when they air on tv. Also if you’re lazy, you can watch the Harry Potter Christmas scenes on Youtube just to skip the rest of the year.

TV Episodes I like to go back for: Leverage’s The Ho Ho Ho Job and Pushing Daisies’ Corpsicle.

Some new favorites: the Christmas Chronicles (that’s the one with the disturbingly hot Kurt Russell Santa), the Spirit of Christmas, and Die Hard. 

Then there’s Rare Exports, a Finnish offering that’s kind of suspenseful/scary where Santa/Krampus and his Elves are after the kids with nefarious intentions. It’s kinda bad/silly but in a earnest way. I love it and you just can’t beat the epic scene where dozens of old guys are running naked through the snow, dicks a-flopping in the icy wind. This movie really Did That. I think it’s still on American Hulu rn.

I generally find that Hallmark/Lifetime/even Netflix sadly don’t really do my favorite tropes justice. That’s for romance novels and fanfiction. I love so many of the usual tropes like ‘Oh no, we’re snowed in and there’s only one bed!’, dumbasses who are in lust/love with each other but think its unrequited who end up kissing under the mistletoe or making out at a holiday party of some sort, spending hours in an airport trying to get home for the holidays and basically it turns into a date, fake dating to get family/friends off their backs, neighbors in an apt bldg where one loves holiday music and baking and the other is grumpy about it all....

[nightcoremoon]

my family turned on Christmas Chronicles on Netflix, the Kurt Russel santa one, and honestly I gotta tell you that I refuse to watch it because fuck new Christmas movies [only valid one this decade was Krampus because it was a horror comedy] however in only 3 minutes I saw the best written older brother character in any shitty feel-good movie in my entire life. that's exactly the definition of jerk with a heart of gold that is the older brother, not this fucking borderline sociopathic pure assholery that everything else has seemed to try to push for the past several decades now

[kurtty-drabbles]

Postwoman au

N/A: Here we go. I´m tempted in making this a continuation of my Krampus au or my drabble, yet, I want to do something new here. Also, Santa here is professional but a freak in the sheet (THERE´S A NICHE WHERE SANTA FUCKS) also, would be racist if Santa attends to all holidays?

@dannybagpipesarecalling @djinmer4 @bamfoftheundead @muninandhugin

There´s an old saying, perhaps not as old as people made out to be, where it goes more or less like this- interpretations may vary and change a word or two- "love conquers all" and is the pure expression of the truth ever since Jean Grey and Scott Summers´s marriage change the course of history forever. Mutants are no longer seen as a threat and there´s no more social prejudice against mutants.

Is this heaven? Far from it. Mutants and Humans are the same sides of the coin- there´re mutants cable of doing more damage than a human can dream and of course, there´re humans that can respond to such violence with the same requiem - and Kitty Pryde is the one living this new reality among all the mutants of the second generation.

I saw the worse.

I saw the good.

And now I´m drifting meaninglessly.

Her body sludge down on the chair. Letting her foot touch the downy floor while the clock ticks and tack a loud sound- her eyes travel towards all the points in the waiting room. From the receptionist doing her work to the big closed door- and Kitty Pryde can see her reflection on the only mirror present. She was never one to put fashion above all, not even in such a situation. Wearing just a white shirt, short jeans and a yellow jacket wide open.

Then her land on the few magazines on display. Different magazines. Same story. Jean and Scott´s wedding was a fantastic story, but, sadly it has one unhappy ending. A man bursting into the church to confess his love for Jean Grey- Jubilee and Kitty was sure Logan would be the one to cause such scene- it was Prof X declaring his undying love for Jean Grey. It is still a nice gossip.

“When a father lusts over his son´s girlfriend” Kitty reads one of the main topics of the magazine. Repugnance is clear in her face and body language.

Another magazine has images of Prof X after his confession and even promised an exclusive interview with the man to explain himself. Kitty rolls her eyes at that- she reminisces when Bobby asks her to come to the wedding as his plus one. His boyfriend and he break up before the big day and Bobby didn´t want to go alone. And they only talk about Prof X and his revelation. The man was in love with a woman he raises since she was a kid- her cellphone rings softly. And has a message from her friends.

Good luck with your interview.

The receptionist has red hair. Too similar to her ex- Kitty meets Rachel Grey by accident. She was from a group called Excalibur. The relationship lasts a few months until Rachel and her group leave. Looking back. it was for the best-She recalls vividly an alternative version of herself who was looking at the relationship with confusion. And looking back again, Kitty can see why- and the woman is now looking at her. Was she always a red hair or is her succubus power kicking in? "Santa called...you can enter now, Miss Pryde" and the sultry smile is a tad similar to her ex. A tad bit only.

"Thanks" Kitty shurgs off and goes without looking back. If the succubus receptionist looks at Kitty going or not is her problem now.

_________________________________________________________________________________________

Kitty is Jewish. She has fond memories of her Hannukahs - uncle Tim bring a new dog he rescued from families who think dogs are toys or aunt Moira and her many good whiskeys- and yet, in all her past Hannukahs there was never a period where her family thought about Santa. Not for a single second. So, of course, Kitty is looking at the real Santa right now.

The popular version of Santa is a fat man with red clothes and a big beard- Yana jokes how Santa could be communist too-and yet, the reality is far from different. Tumblr has a word for this type of Santa, but, Kitty refuses to use it. So, Kitty can summarize by saying: yep, he´s handsome.

"Ah, you must be Miss Pryde, da" his accent is a mixture of Russian and English. Somewhat similar to Yana´s accent. Kitty nods. "Excellent, I´m sorry for the waiting. We´re dealing with a problem...all taken care" and gesture to Kitty sit as the other one will be here to interview her in a minute. "Galaticus usually don´t indicate anyone to this job"

"But he puts adds on the newspaper asking for Heralds" Kitty counters back and Santa didn´t deny that.

"He does that. He even accepts Deadpool as his Herald...don´t ask me why." he shakes his head at this information. "now, tell me about you, Miss Pryde...Galaticus only told us you´re good fitting for the job"

"A job as vague as possible" she arches an eyebrow. "And I´m unemployed at the moment." she pauses and adds. "I´m Jewish"

"If you think this will be a problem or that we only work with Christians families. You´re wrong. I work on any holiday that celebrates the family and love. Any family can receive me if they so wish, I have visited some Hannukahs in my past, I was denied in some Christian families and so and on. Krampus, my friend, is not a racist or believes in ''the old ways'' in fact, he hates the old ways more than you think" Santa states calmly and speaks something in a new language to something or someone way behind Kitty.

"There´s the devil!" Satan states all joyful causing Kitty to turn her head and see the so-called Krampus. A handsome indigo man. Golden eyes. and a tail throwing a winning smile at her. "Krampus, this is Kitty. Kitty this is Krampus. You´ll be his secretary...if he agrees" and the man kissed her hand-a bit old fashioned. Kitty didn´t hide her confusion- and both are now alone to conduct the interview.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

"Galaticus indicate you" his tone is joyful. Does he want Kitty to forget this is an interview? "Do you know what a Krampus is?" and Kitty closes her eyes hard and starts to mull the word for a moment.

I know I heard this name somewhere.

"Ok, I got it. You have no idea what am I" hos tone is amused and Kitty opens her eyes to see Kurt smiling like a cat. "Do you know what this job is?" and now she´s losing her patience.

"No, of course not, Galaticus comes into my room and says" Kitty pauses to mimic his voice. "Go to Santa. They have a job for you. And then he vanished. I had no idea what this job is about and no one is telling me anything. I don´t even celebrate Christmas" Kitty finishes her rants. Krampus is still too amused.

"My bad then, for starts, I deal with naughty mortals, so to speak" Kitty is listening. "Your job, if you accept, is to help me organize things. I´m terrible with names and numbers. And Santa´s elves can help me so far...of course, you´ll be compensated by your work. Here the initial idea for your salary" and Kitty is more than surprised. Is not a big number nor a smaller. It is acceptable for now. "and we´ll offer you some magic compensations to do some of the jobs. I mean, I´ll need someone to deliver messages to others deities and I know you don´t have teleportation" Krampus conclude waiting for her reply.

Kitty mulls over for 2 minutes. "Will I have to work all day and night?"

"Of course not. We all have lives. And the weekends are yours to do what you want!"

"If I give you my name..." and now Krampus chuckles.

"I´m not a regular fae. I can give you my name if it makes you feel at peace" and Kitty is surprised by this revelation. "my name is Kurt Wagner"

"I´m not sure if I´ll want to do this for a long period" Kitty begins and Kurt states that she needs to fill 6 months of work after that she´s free. "So, I´m willing to give a chance"

And with a snap of his fingers a pink fae- she calls herself pixie- shows up having in hands a contract in her hands ready for Kitty and Kurt to sign. Kitty read the contract - some laws are protecting her. As well as a law of discretion. Kitty can´t tell anyone what happens in Krampus´s working hour-and Kitty signal the contract.

"Welcome aboard, Katzchen. Hope you can survive the experience"

"Wait, what?"
